"Cannot Have My Soul"
by Robbie Seay Band from
Rich & Poor
Lyrics:
I'm a soul with a body of my own there's a time I'll lay this body down
When I go, don't mourn for what is lost but rejoice for what is found
If the devil wants to come for me I will tell him to his face
You can have my body but you cannot have my soul
In the heavens I will be singing songs of Hallelujah
You can have my body but you cannot have my soul
No,you cannot have my soul
I can go I can live beyond these bones I can walk the streets of gold
Let me go let me go let me live and breathe again in a place that I have longed to know
One stop living in your arms I'll be living in hope, believe
I've stopped living in fear, you see living in hope
"So Wrong"
by Shaken from
Shaken
Lyrics:
Should I have to remind you what you believe?
You're so busy condemning me.
Blinded by your hypocrisy
If I'm wrong, tell me, why are you searching?
There is one truth, one absolute
But you refuse to seek true faith
Your mind is crying
You're so wrong about being right.
Why do you search for truth in lies?
Can't you see you're full of pride?
So I dare you, cross that line.
You scream for harmony
But point the blame everywhere
But your side of the game.
Can it be we just disagree?
But if I'm wrong, tell me, why are you searching?
I see proof when I look at you
I see you go your own way
Your soul is dying
Even so I'll still pray for faith to find every person some way.
For the hero to save us. For the savior to reign.
"Don't Close Your Eyes"
by Sky Terminal from
Don't Close Your Eyes
Lyrics:
And like a gentle whisper you're rising from deep within myself
It's like a burning fire now raging on inside my soul
And with all I have I give You all this life inside that lives
So come on open up these eyes and see what comes down from on high
Don't close your eyes to the sunrise
Don't close your eyes to the sunrise
And as these words escape my lips I find this life in you exists
So common open up these eyes and see what comes down from on high
And when the beautiful has come and my voice in awe becomes numb
When silence overcomes the crowd well see your presence has surround
The light it comes around the bend
See it streaming up ahead
Looking for your light to guide my way
"Nailed"
by Theocracy from
As The World Bleeds
Lyrics:
I've been working for my whole life to get to the other side
And try to achieve true righteousness
All the scourges and whips I cracked
The flesh I ripped off my back
It only led me to emptiness
Here I am, a broken man who's done all that a man could do
And found that it's only filthy rags
Monasteries, religious schools, indulgences, laws and rules
It all added up to nothing and darkness and death
Vanity, Heartache, and emptiness
Efforts all fading away
The flesh and defeat that it brings
'Till You guide me and show me things
That my eyes have never seen before
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
Never fight it anymore
For the burden on my life has been released
Nail it to the door
Nailed these ninety-five things I've learned
They'll say that I must be burned
For God has no place for heretics
All the things that they try to sell
It's trickery straight from Hell
To turn it into a den of thieves
See these madmen peddling the wares of dead men's souls
Collecting on a debt already paid so long ago
There's fire in my spirit, and fire in their eyes
For now they'll want to burn me alive
Yet freedom rings
Unworthiness is all I bring
The blood of Christ is all I claim
This grace revealed everything
That my eyes have never seen before
As I burst forth from the belly of the beast
Never fight it anymore
For the burden on my life has been released
Nail it to the door
"White Ambulance"
by This City Awaits from
Said The Liar
Lyrics:
Be still, don't breate
Your last sigh of life
I can't let your color slip thru my fingers
Without a fight, is it too late?
Do You see the ambulance, painted in white
The angel's here for you
(WAIT) for the moment you can't speak
(WAIT) for the moment you disappear on me suddenly
I'm still here searching for you
(To Wake) Grab my hand, you insist
Before the scene arrives
The seconds Runaway, I'm begging for you stay
Parting words "Don't you dare forget me,"
I'll always (WAIT)

Lyrics:
When that beat drop, boy, I'm about to snap off
When that beat drop, boy, I'm about to snap off
When that beat drop, boy, I'm about to snap off
Snap off, snap off, I'm about to snap off
I ain't got nothing to lose, I already done lost it
You see the life that I lived now, but you don't know what this done cost me
I rapped about what I lived about, you better go and do your homework
When that whistle blows and that ball's snapped, I'm 'cross the line and I'm in first
My team though they move
When it's time for us to roll out boy we come together, we move
Through blood, sweat, and tears boy but we do not lose
We hold it down, this frontline, like a O-line in the Super Bowl, this game time, it's crunch time
Don't confuse us with them fakers, hello to all my haters
Sorry but I'll see you later, hope that you can see the table
My Lord done set a place for me and I'm sitting down and I'm gon' eat
I black out, I zone out, do all that till I'm on E
I snap off, snap off, I'm about to snap off
Snap off, snap off, I'm about to snap off
Snap off, snap off, I'm about to snap off
You might wanna step back derrty and give your boy some room ... ohhh!!
And I know you can hear us coming
Now throw your hands up in the sky where they s'posed to be
Now wave 'em from side to side
If you're gonna lose your mind tonight
So snap off, we about to snap off
Hands up, heads banging, 'bout to blow the cap off
So snap off, we about to snap off
Hands up, heads banging, 'bout to blow the cap oooooooooffff
Snap off (snap off), when you hear this snap off
If you tell me shut it up, that's gon' make me mouth off
Mouth off (mouth off), you can't keep me quiet
Go and get Tedashii, we about to start a riot
And tear this roof off (roof off), what'cha say? Who soft?
Go to church, who scared? Boy be gone, poof off
Poof off (poof off), you can get it gone
Please give me some space, I'm 'bout to get off in my zone
Game clock on 24, whole team on the floor
And we're 'bout to go hard like we in the Final Four
With our guard on the line, plus the game tied
Like win and make this shot, we about to lose our mind
We 'bout to...

"Crown Of Thorns"
by For Today from
Prevailer
Lyrics:
We crown Him with the crown of thorns
This is the end of a life that's been poured out for all mankind
In suffering, manifest glory has come at the fullness of time
King of Kings Beaten and broken down
Why would he live like a servant?
King of Kings descending lower now
Why should he die like a slave?
The proud will be humbled, the meek will inherit the Earth
The last will be first to inherit the earth
I know down is the way up so Master, show me how to serve
The last will be first to inherit the earth
The last will be first to inherit the earth
It should have been me
With the nails through my hands and feet
Facing the wrath of God
It should have been me
Left to pay for my sin forsaken
But in the blood I stand
It should have been me
Born to die
He bore the fire of God's holy wrath on His shoulders
Born to die
I watched Him pour out his life as a ransom for all
And as He carried His cross on his back
Beaten and bloody, yeah, I saw myself there too
Because I've been broken by a world that hates me
But I'm not alone anymore
No one can take His life-He laid it down for me
That twisted wreath of thorns, yeah He took that crown for me
Then after three days out of the ground for me
He overcame it all! Now I live to serve Him
With stripes on His back
Betrayed by the ones He'd loved so perfectly
We spit in His face and we crowned Him
We crown Him with a crown of thorns
"Remember The Empire"
by House Of Heroes from
Cold Hard Want
Lyrics:
I was counting on the chemicals
I was waiting on a miracle
Holding back what was inevitable
Don't go, don't go
A ray of hope is never tangible
Change is almost imperceptible
A great wave that's immeasurable
But I know, I know
We were giants once
Hold on to me
Hold on to us
Hold on to me
We were giants once
I still believe
Hold on to us
We can still be
We were giants once
I remember how it used to be
We had a confidence, a certainty
Like we were in the graces permanently
Is that so, is that so?
Like a belief that you never see
Til you decide that it has to be
That's they way it is with you and me
And I know, I know
We were giants once
Oh don't let go
We were giants once
"Church Clap" (feat. Lecrae)
by KB from
Weight & Glory
Lyrics:
Gimme that God Almighty
That good ol' Bible
That old school doctrine
Gimme that truth for the body
Ain't nothing new about it
But it's still full of power
Now church clap, let me hear the church clap (church clap)
Lecrae:
Gimme dat, church motha and they church hat, clap
Man the Suge Avery Color Purple comin back, clap uhh
When that whole week beat you up and stress ya
But you hear that organ playin it remind ya of ya blessins
And on anotha note, she just hit anotha note
Chills down my spine, got me cryin, make me over Lord
You'ont know about it though, ol'school church hymms
Speakers get to hummin now the drummer finna burst in
(Lordy, Lordy, LORD) Can you hear me now
Church clothes sweaty, you'ont care you just get it now
Testify, how we made Matyrs outta these fathers and rose up all of his daughters to glorify Him with honor
Man I swear I saw Miss Jones with her hair did
Now its flyin everywhere she dont care what her head did
She an heir, yea
Caught up in the air, yea
Probably why she clappin like Jesus just reappeared here
KB:
I wanna be the type of dude to get the Lord on his feet
I wanna do the type of shows that the Lord wanna see
And what I mean, if I could make the whole church clap
But aint a clap in the heavens then that clap just a clap, clap
For the son glorified, sin mortified
The Holy Spirit's going Word of Truth been watered down
It sound doctrine, Spurgeon and common uh
Nothing wrong with singing loud but that aint where the power's at
For too long the church churches been clappin at weak sermons
Leavin the weak hurt, no one's changed by Sunday's service
We need discernment, check what you be affirmin'
Cause a church can be full of members but empty in conversions
Preach the gospel, and stand back
Look for change lives not for hand claps
Love people well, Oh they can't stand that
The church just a church when the word is where we stand at
"At The Sound"
by Kingdom from
Kingdom
Lyrics:
In the hope in the hurt and in the pain
When we're lost in the dark
He's still the same
Our God is everywhere
In the fear, in the faith
And when there's rest
On the day when we'll
Take our final breath
Our God is everywhere
There's no light brighter than You
There's no one higher than You
Every knee will touch the ground
Every crown will be laid down
At the sound of Your name
Though the wind and the waves
I can't control
I will hold to the anchor of my soul
Our God is everywhere
"Heart Attack"
by Manafest from
Fighter
Lyrics:
I see red but I'm not even stopping
Speed ahead put a nail in my coffin
Resurrect and see a dead man walking
Tie me up cause I think that i've lost it
My halo's on, but it's faded I've fallen
Missing pieces keep proceeding with caution
St. peter hold the door cause I'm coming
Sweet jesus, so tired of running
Wake up!
We're moving way to fast
It's hard to see the ground
When your flying at the speed of sound
Hold on we got to get this back on track
Before we lose it or before we have a heart attack
My eyes flicker in a mirror of anger
Hanging on by a thread for an answer
In stocks I'm a slave to the lender
Can't exit out a here like I entered
The undertaker prosecutes to convict me
The devil's waiting in the river to sink me
Rain drops fall hark to your mercy
God's knocking on my door to forgive me
I'm done playing with fire
Fed up with playing the liar
I've lived the hard way for too long
Save me from this heart attack
I feel my heart beat slowing down
Clocks ticking time is running out
There's still a spark alive in me
I'm not, ready to leave

Lyrics:
Take the world but give me God's love
Cause I'll find rest when I'm dead
He's the sweetest song that I've ever heard
And it plays loud inside my head
I long for you just like the ocean breeze
Cause You're the wind that fills my sails
My senses are numbed by the autumn scene
Like the leaves that paint the ground
You are Holy
Whoa my eyes are on the sky
Whoa arms open wide
Whoa rain on me tonight
Cause you are Holy
I long for you just like a precious stone
Cause You're the jewel that captures me
And who could have loved with a love so bold
To give His Son up to die for me
Just dry and brittle
Looking for the rain
So open up the heavens
And revive me again

"Unworthy"
by My Hearts Cry from
Prayer Of The Saints
Lyrics:
These pictures and memories lie
Upon this table filled with crimes
I can't believe what time has done
Where once you stood by my side
Cold chills crawling down my spine
This river of betrayal runs so deeply
You called me here to take it away
I breathe in this frigid air
My life is filled with such despair
I need a hope not of this world
I'm standing up, I'm coming down
Discovering the grace I've found
I'll give it all cause I'm so unworthy
My clothes are rent, I am exposed
This is a life I've never known
I'll give it all cause I'm so unworthy
I'm so unworthy now
My senses are weak and worn
Dismissing pain with adding more
I need a hope that's rescuing
These burdens are mine to bear
But it feels good to lay them there
Millions of eyes are staring while I walk down
I have come undone I'll lay it all here
Relinquishing the old and garnering the new
"What I Can't Take"
by Our Hearts Hero from
Shine On
Lyrics:
This is nothing how it seems in the movies
And nothing like I dreamed that it should be
Instead of feeling safe at home
I'm stranded in a private war zone
And no one here seems sane but me
I can live with the pain
And deal with all the heartache
And I'll soldier on
And survive through all the rain
But what I can't take is how you never change
I wanted you to be my protection
Instead you were the source of all my doubt
And I'm sure you face the very things
That made you what you are to me
But those patterns and these chains are broken now
I'm grounded in the faith that's strong
Without you I will carry on
And I'll pray there comes a day when you will change
I promise you that I wont be the same
I'll never be the same
I wont be the same
Even if you never change

Lyrics:
Is it my fear of man keeping me where I am?
Forgive me where I stand
I'm stuck inside this rut I'm in
Even the bitterest truths defeat the sweetest lies
They build their house on sand, but I'm not giving in
You always see me through, and I'll be alright
I know this love is true, I can see clearly now
Skeletons, they take no brides
This fortress you shake every time
I always ran from grace thinking I could get away
They say I'm my own worst critic
I think I'm starting to believe it
Like wolves we can not hide, in these disguises
They build their house on sand, but I'm not giving in
"Unbelievable"
by Sean Michel from
Electric Delta
Lyrics:
Everyone will come from miles around to see a miracle
They wanna see one with their own eyes
They're drawn in by the show
But they don't really wanna know
They want the beat and not the lines
They make a hero out of you
When they see all that you can do
While missin' the point the whole time
They always walk away
Their hearts are never truly changed
Their always askin' for a sign
It's unbelievable...right?
Well Sunday rolls around
And you're the buzz all over town
Your name is in them headlines
But give em a few days
You know their minds are gonna change
Your fans screamin', "Crucify"
One day you're on the throne
The next you're all alone
Looks like your fans have all fled
You're cast out on the street
Without no food to eat
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Well if I walked up out this grave
You know it wouldn't matter anyway
They wouldn't believe a single word I said
I know that this is true
I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm comin' back from the dead
"Sick Of It"
by Skillet from

Lyrics:
If you're sick if you're sick if you're sick
If you're sick of it
If you're sick if you're sick
If you're sick of it
When everything you do
Don't seem to matter
You try but it's no use
Your world is getting blacker
When every time you fail
Has no answer
Every empty promise made
Is a reminder
No one can make this better
Take control it's now or never
Are you sick of it
Raise your hands
Get rid of it
While there's a fighting chance
Are you over it
Bored to death
Have you had enough regret
Take a stand, raise your hands
If you're sick of it
Every single day
I chase my own tail
Like a rat inside a maze
Gotta get gotta get get away
I'm running outta time
For me to break this
I'm tired of feeling like I'm never gonna make it
No one can make this better
Take control it's now or never
I'm tired of it
I'm over it
I'm bored of it
Gotta fix this
I'm sick of it

You're gonna suffer
Hit me, I'll hit back harder
The bigger you are
The harder you fall
It's your darkest hour
Hit me, I'll hit you harder
When my back's against the wall
I strike back
When my back's against the wall
I strike back
You are the darkness, I am the light
You are the fallen, and heaven don't lie
So step back, you're crossing the line
If I told you once I told one thousand times
You've got my back
Against the wall
You've got my back

We hit the brakes, but keep movin'
Left with none
We're left with none
Left with none
Except these scars and these bruises
When everything turns dim
It's love that finds a way
It's one last time before we fly away
When the lights go down
I'm gonna be there
When you're on the run
I'm gonna be there
When you're hangin' on

It's one last time before we fly away
"Outlaws"
by Disciple from
O God Save Us All
Lyrics:
Do you live, do you think like they told you?
Around your neck, can you breathe when they hold you?
You're doing what they say, a puppet on their string
If you do just what they want they'll promise you about anything
Can you believe, do you dream you could be free?
Take your hands off your eyes so that you see
You're more than just a face, you're more than just a name
You're more than labels that the hypocrites around you gave
To all the outlaws, all the outcasts
You wanna breathe?
Come on and fly with me
To all the locked-down, all the burned-out
You wanna be free?
Come on and fly with me
Do you burn, do you bleed when they touch you?
Do you scream in your sleep while they cut you?
More than just pretty scars is what they want to leave
Sit in their tattoo chair they'll leave the markings of a beast
Do you believe, do you dream you could be free?
Take your hands off your eyes so that you see
You're meant to rise above, yeah you were made to fly
You were made to sing and dance where angels never die
Say so long to whatever you once were
Say so long to everything that you once knew
We're more than faces, we're more than just names
We're more than labels the hypocrites gave
We're the affection of the Unseen
We are the sons and daughters of a King
"Anyone But You"
by Hawk Nelson from
Made
Lyrics:
Is it a dream? Is it real life? Is it a joke?
'Cause there's not a thing turning out right
Every step, I feel like I'm farther behind
End of my rope, out of a hope, that was days ago
That's what I thought, but somehow I fought
Every urge to let go
I knew I wasn't alone
When I see impossible come true
And when I see a miracle come through
And turn my dark to day
My doubt to faith
It's never left to fate
It couldn't be anyone but You
It couldn't be anyone but You
It couldn't be anyone but You
It couldn't be anyone but You
I'm starting to see, noticing things
That carry Your fingerprints
All credit is due, pointing to You
I've seen the evidence to prove
There's no one but You
All through my ups and downs
You were just waiting on my call
You turned this life around
And You are never far

These walls cannot contain the fire inside me
With or without you, I'll keep on fighting
Overcome by the darkness that's rising in me
I can feel the enemy approaching
I am the one you have stolen
I am the one that is bound by your lies

With or without you, I'll keep on fighting
These walls will never

Lyrics:
It feels like forever
Since I fell into Your arms
It feels like forever
Since I was safe from harm
Life's too short
To waste away
From You
YOU FILL THE VOID INSIDE ME
I was blind to think
There were secrets I could keep
You see all I've hidden
All I've locked away so deep
You're the rock I stand on
You're the life I need
You're everything I wanted
You're the air I breathe
"Fighting Gravity"
by I Anthem from
Fighting Gravity
Lyrics:
Looking for a place to take my stand
The hardest thing to face is what's within
We always fear what we know that we want the most
Am I afraid to chase the thing I love?
What if I found out that it's not enough?
I've got an appetite that I don't know that I can tame
Or contain
Someday I will find a way to get to you
I'll keep fighting gravity
Pushing through the cracks to break away
Face me when I'm talking to you
Everybody feels like they have something to prove
So give me something more than tell me that you understand, understand?
Are you afraid to face reflections of
The man within that no one loves
Everybody's got their demons of the past
I wanna know you're more than just a feeling
More than just my reaching
and hoping for something more
"Off The Grid"
by Project 86 from
Wait For The Siren
Lyrics:
My sentence is ending like this
I've been hacking and digging with a spoon and a shiv
Tunneling inch by inch
My strategy hinges on the fact that you've missed...
Too long coming locked down I'm breaking out
So long…
Served my days, but now it's coming around
So long...
Confinement gives birth to reflections
I wish I could trade ill-fated decisions
My penance has earned these offenses
I'm crawling my way to independence
Wait for moonlight
Time the searchlights
Lay in the shadows
Preparing for flight
My captors are convinced that I'm pinned
Down in dependence on the system that fostered
An institution of thieves
But I live to see
The shock on their faces when my cell is empty

I know I can change (I can change)
I know that I'm weak enough
to know I'm not strong enough
to bridge the gap for every fallen man
but you say I'm brave enough
to know we can overcome
the wrongs we wrote,
so leave them in the past
I see fault lines inside everything I call stable
disappointment within every turn, I'm not able
but the light that I found promised not to grow dim,
even with every low that I've seen
and the righteous I've failed to become
will be covered in grace by the holiest King

Lyrics:
I been workin in the battlefield
All day and night
Cause they search and they steal
Rob and they kill
Anything in sight
And I'm caught in this division
But I hold to my position
Fighting in a war zone
A war zone
Fighting in a war zone
A war zone I been runnin through the battlefield
Runnin day and night
And I'm trapped in this chase
No place place to escape
With no end in sight
And I'm caught in this division
But I hold to my position
If I never surrender
It's not arrogance of youth I will always remember
What I know to be the truth
So I'll stand and I 'll fight
If I live or I die
"Skin And Bones"
by Fit For A King from
Creation|Destruction
Lyrics:
Forgive me now, for I have sold my soul for gold.
Washed up on shore a thousand miles away from home.
Just as I begin to settle in to these skin and bones alone,
I find the answers to questions I have never known.
Is there life beyond the grave?
And will I make the same mistakes day after day?
There must be a better way.
Running from time to try and keep myself alive.
Release my pride to keep from pushing the light aside.
Now as I begin to let this in, I must keep the best in mind,
And remove myself from the things that are wasting my time.
I know that one of these days I'll finally see you face to face at the golden gates.
Will you take me or will I fade into the grave?
I know these words won't hold any weight but please don't turn away. Don't turn away from me.

Lyrics:
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Can't you feel I'm drawing near
The place that broke your heart
Cut up and scarred
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Oh, the secret memories you keep
Ignoring so that you can sleep
I'm facing what you won't tonight
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love filling me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
There I was awaiting death for you
And all I did was love you too
I'm facing what you won't tonight
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love filling me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
There I was awaiting death for you
And all I did was love you too
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love filling me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
And I am Yours forevermore
"Man Of Sorrows"
by Wolves At The Gatee from
Captors
Lyrics:
Blistered feet, bloodied alone
Walked the streets a man unknown
Battered face as He adorns
A mocker's robe, a crown of thorns
A tree designed for His demise
Cursed, maligned by guilty cries
The nails and hammer they did meet
Two in the hands, one in the feet
Risen up, put on display
For a guilty mob to scream and say
"Crucify! Crucify!"
The people yelled to crucify
"He must die! He must die!"
Without a fight He did comply
I do not know the pain you felt
Or lowly service as You knelt
Down before such lowly men You served (and washed their feet)
Who is this man they sent to die?
Many still could not reply
Betrayed and sold by His very own (with a kiss)
He met the needs of thousands fed
Healed the sick and raised the dead
"My God! My God!" The man did say
"Have you forsaken me this day?"
Bleeding, dying; words were few
"Forgive them Lord for what they do"
Gasping breath they heard Him say
"It is finished!"
Laid below the ground You knew it couldn't hold You
They thought that You were bound by nature's laws
He is risen! He is risen!
For the veil that was torn in two and the darkness that would ensue
A symbol alas that the debt was finally paid
When the stone it was rolled away, He was no longer where He lay
Surely our King had risen from the dead
On and on and on we're singing
Singing out for all to hear us
This is not a simple story
Our lives are for Your glory
Beyond my words and written pages
Your song across the ages
"The Florida Rage"
by Write This Down from
Lost Weekend
Lyrics:
Call it quits, call it off
A cycle that never stops
Night and day, I'm awake
Replaying all my mistakes
Back and forth, I'm a wreck
Five days and I haven't slept
Calm my nerves with a prayer
A cycle I can't repair
It doesn't matter how far I go
(You know you wanna)
You got me feeling like I'll turn around
(You know you wanna)
I'm back with my late night confessions
Full circle, back sliders
And you're counting on the worst in me
I"m sick to my stomach about this
One sided devotion
And you're hoping for the best in me
Call it quits, call it off
We've seen this coming for months
Feel the shock as I walk
Rejoicing in what I've lost
Stay away, stay away
Keep you in my darker days
Calm your nerves, with a prayer
A cycle I can't repair

"Nowhere To Run"
by Children 18:3
Lyrics:
Wash me out!
Take me down to the water
Wash me out!
I've been tainted in blood
Wash me out!
Take me down to the river
Nowhere to run, nowhere to run, so
Trouble.
Oh, I was caught, I was born in a trap
I was bit with nowhere to turn back
Mud on the inside, blood on the ground and dirt
And everyone's crazy
Dirty.
There's so many faces to my fear
Where do the phantoms all come from?
Slowly the answers disappear
Leaving me nowhere, nowhere to run
I am confusion, I am loss
I am dirty
I am the thief strung on the cross
I am dirty
I am seclusion, I am lust
I am dirty
Take me naked to the cross
I am dirty
"Power Trip"
by Lecrae from
Gravity
Lyrics:
Who's got the power?
(Pro):
The key to life: money, power, respect
Louie this, Gucci that, two private jets
Big money, big business, watch that paper stack
Treat life like a game, it ain't pool but I'm racked
Up, big bucks, no whammys
I swear I prolly lump somebody head for a Grammy
My heart black as the Lambo Kim bought for Kanye
And I ain't fronting, I'm just telling ya'll what God say
Blood thirsty
Seek my own will since the day that Adam cursed me
The lust for power go to ya' brain if you let it
You say, 'What up dog?' I hear 'god.' I'm so dyslexic
Sit on the throne, it's really a toilet, heart is septic
I have no power, I get handed death, I must accept it
It's hard to see the light when you never listen
Our whole life's blacked out, the power's trippin
(Lecrae):
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all, whole world in ya' palm? Tell me,
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the decidin'
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all, whold world in ya' palm? Tell me,
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the decidin'
(Lecrae):
It was all a dream
I grew up readin' hip-hop magazines
Double-XL got me wanton to excel
They tellin' me it ain't hard to tell, I rock well
And now with every sale I'm feelin' my head swell
Well, I'm a genius in my dreams
Even if I was, it was stitched inside my genes
I'm self-inflated, self-infatuated
And somehow I convinced myself I finally made it
The truth is I was made like the mob
Geppetto put me together; my strings lead to God
Pride come befo' the fall, I seen it in the script
So if you see me fallin', prolly a power trip
(Sho Baraka):
Welcome to the culture where humility is not allowed
They do it big, if you don't see that, you Shallow Hal
Tryna show them how love and power, it goes together
If they call us losers, that just means we last forever
I been connected to the power, I don't have to chase it
I roll with the Trinity, this is sorta the Matrix
A hard pill to swallow: we're evil to the core
Wicked power exploits the poor, and it brings war
Power can be a field of dreams loaded with land mines
We know the ruler so you can't say these are bad lines
(You might lust for that power!), but don't forget that we're forgiven
I know the Lord gon' catch me when I'm power trippin'
(Andy Mineo):
Who made the crowd put they hands in the sky? Me.
Who made the sky with they hands? What if y'all can't see?
This is kinda strange, God makes the weather change
And we braggin' up on our change like "look how we make it rain!"
We Invictus, this sin sickness is in us
Running a muck and causing that mischief, tell me this then, 'Who could really fix us?'
I'm, trippin' to think that I'm really not limited in this position I'm sittin' in,
Gravity pulling me back to earth gradually, reality's hittin'
(Who's got the power?)
"Estrange"
by The Overseer from
We Search We Dig
Lyrics:
Take your cheap shot.
Point your finger to blame.
But you hardly know their names.
You're just a God fearing hypocrite, just another sinning saint.
Grace show us your face and bring redemption.
We've all lost sight of the call.
A dimming light with every generation,
we will be the death of us all.
You look with judging eyes,
but we all have so much to hide behind our masks and cheap disguises.
Grace show us your face and bring redemption.
We've all lost sight of the call.
A dimming light with every generation,
we will be the death of us all.
Grace show your face.
We are calloused and numb.
We are wool covered wolves and we feed on our young.
Steal a breath from a gasping lung, then use it to preach on compassion and love.
God how can You love such a beast?
"Rely On Her"
by Run Kid Run from
Patterns
Lyrics:
I took the time to belong to the World
And like a bride, I relied on her
I made excuses for the things I have done
I drew a line and it's my side I stand on
I made a difference but only to me
If this is me then I'm backing out
If this is Faith then I'm shutting down
A seed of doubt buried underground
If this is all then I'm getting out
I want to move on from who I am
Fill the hourglass up with sand
I want to be different from here on in
Look at me, here's the mark of a changed man
The fever broke and I'm sound again
Listen here, I'll tell you all I know
Listen here, I'll tell you all I know
If this is me then I'm backing out
If this is Faith then I'm shutting down
A seed of doubt buried underground
If this is all then I'm getting out
I took the time to rely
On a World that doesn't satisfy
I took the time to rely
On a World that doesn't satisfy
If this is me then I'm backing out
If this is Faith then I'm shutting down
A seed of doubt buried underground
If this is all then I'm getting out
"All Glory"
by The OC Supertones from
For The Glory
Lyrics:
all around the world every time its told
the story always sounds like this
the powerful will use that power to kill
the poor are used up by the rich
the righteous in chains and the innocent slain
all for the wicked man's gain
and the fool believes that God cannot see
he has no fear of His name
all the world will lift its eyes
the time will come, our God will rise!
all glory, all power, hallelujah
a day will come and God will fight
and all the wrongs will be made right!
all glory all power hallelujah
the rebel's gun and the tyrant's tank
are gonna be fuel for the flame
and sweet relief for those who grieve
when the day of the Lord is proclaimed
and without a shot shot, or a single bomb dropped
the killing machine will forever stop
there'll be no more war when the Prince of Peace
tells all of the world His name
unto our God, we lay it down
before the thrown, before the crown
to you oh God, we give ourselves
be lifted high, above all else

"Fine Lines"
by Abel from
Make It Right
Lyrics:
I'm ashamed.
I talk like a saint, but I am to blame
for this terrible, terrible time
I said you could handle it
But all that I wanted was the fame
and my peace of mind
And it comes around again
like my closest friend
Cause this is a part of me
that I cannot deny
And it could take everything
before it's satisfied
Now I'm counting days until I get home
So I can pay you back for every single wrong
Not like Christ, but seventy-seven times
I will lie, and say I apologize
just to make it right with you
Pride's a restless thing
it will not let you sleep at all
"Inside Of Me"
by Ashes Remain from
What I've Become
Lyrics:
Give me everything
I could never be
should be dead but I'm still breathing
Lights are fading
concentrating, on Your voice to keep from breaking
Show me everything I could never see
I wanna know what's all around me
Now I'm finding
lights are blinding
letting go of all I'm hiding
I'm falling
I'm fading
I'm reaching
I'm finding
I can't breath without You
I'm stuck inside of me
I'm not free without You
there's nothing left of me
Break me down then build me up again
Speak to me and make me listen
Sick of waiting, Suffocating
Eerything I am is fading
Show me everything I could never be
I wanna know You're all around me
Now I'm finding
life is blinding
letting go of all I'm hiding
I'm falling
I'm fading
I'm reaching
I'm finding
"Sing"
by I Am Empire from
Anchors
Lyrics:
You are worthy of a great song
So worthy of a good son that I could never be
You are evidence around me
Elegance resounding
By grace I am restored
But inside I don't feel alright
I can't help but sing
Waiting for the warm spring
Winter wears me down
Fall into the ground
I can't help but sing
You are a beautiful disaster
Running so much faster
Like water through my veins
You are the hope that lives inside me
A faith that is arriving whenever I start to doubt
But inside I don't feel alright
I can't help but sing
Waiting for the warm spring
Winter wears me down
Fall into the ground
I'll wait for any sound
Lie here until I'm found
I can't help but sing
Raise the voice inside
Call the dream to life
"Positive Radio"
by Manic Drive from
Epic
Lyrics:
I need that sound sound
Cranked on my radio
The bass goes pound pound
Watching my 808 explode
The windows down down
Cause I wanna show the world
So crank it loud loud
Listen to every single word
Hey brother rock that six string
I'll sing the melody
We'll lay down that sweet music
Played on those frequencies
On my new FM boombox mobile music machine
Ya we're transmitting
So turn it up now
Crank to max until my ears are sore
So turn it up now
Driving with the pedal to the floor
Cruisin downtown blasting my positive radio
So turn it up now
Positive radio
So give a shout out
To people at positive radio
Cause without
Who'd be broadcasting to the world
It's all about
The music and more about the words
So crank it loud loud
This positive alternative network
Ya I'm cruising downtown so you better hold tight
The music so clever ya it just might
Change your life forever in just one night
So crank that radio loud with Manic Drive
"I Heard The River"
by Southbound Fearing from
Bad Dreams And Melodies
Lyrics:
I heard the river calling out my name
I heard the wind say "lay your burdens down"
I'm not alone. I'm not alone
I'm not alone. You're always waiting for me in
my best hiding place. I'm not alone.
I'm not alone. You're here when I wake up and in
You I find my rest. I'm not alone.
I heard my captain screaming out "Hold Fast."
I saw my captain lay His body down.
Let me say "yes." Let me say "yes."
Let me say "yes" can you help me?
Let me say "yes." Let me say "yes."
Let me say "yes" I know You can help me.
Let me say "yes." Let me say "yes."
Let me say "yes" when You call me.
Let me say "yes." Let me say "yes."
